Amber and Luke's love story began in April of 2021 when they met online. Instantly hitting it off, they exchanged constant texts and lengthy phone calls. Their first official date, on May 1st, 2021, was a Timberwolves basketball game, marking the start of their journey together. Luke formally asked Amber to be his girlfriend on May 16th, 2021.

The first year of their relationship was marked by long-distance challenges, with the couple commuting three and a half hours every couple weekends to be together. Despite the distance, they bonded over shared interests in sports, music, movies, and humor. Luke introduced Amber to golf, and she quickly became hooked. During the summer months, they would work at a local golf course, playing as many rounds as possible in their free time.

After graduating from St. Thomas, Amber pursued her Doctorate in Physical Therapy in Grand Forks, ND, with Luke joining her and finding work as a middle school math teacher. Their journey reached a milestone when Luke proposed to Amber on September 2nd, 2023, at Itasca State Park in MN, surrounded by loved ones.

As Amber prepares to graduate in May 2025 with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy and Luke wraps up his fourth year of teaching, while also completing his Master's in Education, they look forward to their future together. They hope to settle in central MN, where they can continue building their careers and life as a family. Amber and Luke are excited to start this next chapter of their journey, celebrating their love with family and friends.
